    People not into music does not seem to actually listen to the lyrics. Like, Springsteens Born in the USA etc. It is really strange. The lyrics doesn't even have to be subtle.

    Out of all of Bowie’s songs, why would you choose Five Years for this? So daft.

    You could have picked something like Rebel Rebel or Changes which are more positive songs that actually fit your message. Truly absurd.

      unfortunately one of the main applications of current wave "AI", in the long term, is going to be mass surveillance. Meta is a big player on that front.

        Yup. Look at Palantir. What government wouldn't want an All Seeing Eye of Sauron? Their client list is telling.

      It's a game for those with the most cash to burn, and Zuck has that cash (or the ridiculous and numerous equivalents the financers/economists come up with whenever the old set of Monopoly currencies come up short).
